Google Maps API Version 2 Released

The documentation for the Google Maps API version 2 has been released. Oh my… I’ll have to read into this more next weekend. It’s looking like a lot of the stuff I’ve been doing beyond the basic features have been made easier to do. Looks like Google is encouraging the making of custom map types. Yey!

Let me know when you figure out how to embed WMS in GMap2. Seems like GMapType is the place to start, but the methods aren’t very well documented.

You ever thought of using GMap to host a fully functional WFS (read, write, edit, etc)? I saw that you got WFS/read to work. I’m looking for a map client that can generate the full GML write/edit request. Want a job doing that?

I’ll write more about it and put up the pages I’ve been working on when I have the time at the end of the month.

I have thought about GMap as a fully functional WFS. It seems possible as long as there aren’t too many points. I wish I could accept more jobs, but I will be pretty busy working for Amazon this summer.
